Photographing on Vacation

"The very activity of taking pictures is soothing, and assuages general feelings of disorientation that are likely to be exacerbated by travel. ... [Taking pictures] gives shape to experience: stop, take a photograph, and move on. The method especially appeals to people handicapped by a ruthless work ethic - Germans, Japanese, and Americans. Using a camera appeases the anxiety which the work-driven feel about not working when they are on vacation and supposed to be having fun."
Susan Sontag, On Photography

Patrick, former seaman on ships transporting internationally e.g. grain to Hamburg (as he told me), reading paper and waiting in tiny park enclosed by public toilets behind library and restaurants for tourists on either side. 
When I asked him, what he'd like to do now, he answered, "Nothing, I really don't want to do anything anymore."
He got picked up by his daughter just as I was leaving.

A sign painter was painting on the outside of a window (see here for other picture), on the inside of which a large printed poster advertised "Killer Deals" for a Hardware Store called Bond+Bond, here in Gisborne, New Zealand. I didn't actually see the "Killer" part he told me about: "It's a censoring thing, because of the [Christchurch] earthquake," but found this picture around the corner.
